[quote=Anonymous]My kids are grown, but I read “Child of Mine: Feeding with Love and Good Sense” when they were little and it was very enlightening. The highlights were to offer a variety of foods and not give up offering them if your kid doesnʻt like it. They might hate cauliflower today but love it next week so donʻt deprive them of the opportunity to rediscover it. Donʻt cater to your kids by making them separate meals with different foods. Never force kids to eat something or reward them with something they like (e.g. dessert) if they eat something they dislike (e.g. broccoli). As a previous poster mentioned, donʻt make a big deal about food and eating in general. The best way to raise healthy eaters is to be a healthy eater. [/quote]
